Well I got a little bit adventurous tonight a wrote a routine that spins
sprites round in circles using the sin / cos function, I know it works
because I've just dropped it into my DirectX engine and no problems, but it
won't compile on the Yaroze, now I know why .

double Q=0.01

QPos-=0.2250004
Q+=+0.225;

HSX=co0s(Q)*RX;
 HSY=sin(Q)*RY;

these are all using floating point stuff which I know is emulated on the
playstation (or at least thats what the Yaroze documents say) but it won't
link.

I've included the "libps.h" but I get link errors link

Link Error   : undefined: '_d_itod'
Referenced from 'high_score' in Title_Gover.c

Link Error   : undefined: '_d_dtoi'
Referenced from 'high_score' in Title_Gover.c

Link Error   : Link failed.

help... BTW I've turned on Floating Point CodeGen in CodeWarrior, but with
it on or off it makes no difference

Cheers
